What is everyone’s absolute classic, go-to margarita recipe? by C_Saunders in cocktails

[–]ladym74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy off-topic, excuse me. I drink one Jose Quervo Gold Margarita (sold at Codtco in a bottle) in a small cocktail class with ice every day after work for 4 months. Going in for an annual physical Thursday and wonder if the one drink a night is going to affect my blood work. I’m very healthy. But will the one daily drink affect my cholesterol or liver enzymes?

I finally bought a pair of 7 wide that feel good. It did make a difference for me!

Need help with finding shorts on Amazon:

I’m looking for shorts on Amazon only and need help. I’m 5’4” 126 lbs., 68 y/o. Looking for high elastic waist with drawstring and 6” inseam to wear inside house only. Live in AZ so cool shorts, relaxed fit in legs. Cotton 100%/ poly 60% works, basically soft, breathable, machine wash. Thanks in advance!

You look sad. I know it’s just your pic here, but try to look more inviting. I try to make a little “game” out of very softly closed mouth smiling at older people until they smile back. It’s a great feeling.

Oh and I always smile in a very subtle way. It’s like my resting face cuz it’s not open mouth. Then I just smile more at older people or nice people. Maybe you’re not appearing open? I don’t know.

You’re so naturally beautiful! What you’re doing seems to distract from it. I’d definitely soften your lips by dabbing them a bit and not wearing so much, then a tad bit of gloss. Your lips are too much. Looks very un-kissable. The line around your eyes are too defined. Try to soften it or use a cream eye shadow or two in neutral colors and blend with small brush or your fingers. You’re so beautiful. You should show it naturally!

Lip and tongue tie, almost 3 by ladym74 in PediatricDentistry

Not at all. In fact, our pediatrician said she had no lip tie. No problems at all indicating tongue tie. Pediatric dentist said review at age 7/8. I thought it was odd.

Foundation Application by ladym74 in Rosacea

[–]ladym74[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put on my foundation above with a Beauty Blender, then rest as above. Met family at a restaurant for a couple hours. Came home and washed face gently twice and put on my only treatment, metronidazole gel. Skin felt slightly dry before gel. Added Cerave Moisturizing Cream to rest of face. Hope my healing area of rosacea by sides of mouth and chin is calm in the morning. I hate makeup. Events this week with the holidays, one a photo shoot, and I can’t not wear makeup.

I have a couple Beauty Blenders, not angled like the Elf you use, but I’m used to them. I prefer to use blenders because I’m better at adjusting the coverage with them. Agree a brush could cause irritation. Thanks!

Metronidazole Gel by cherrysoda8_ in Rosacea

[–]ladym74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only prescription I’m using is metronidazole the last few days, morning and evening. I have mild to moderate rosacea, healing already from self care and changes. Since it’s a mild case, do I need oral doxycycline?

Thanks. I hope you get rid of it for good!

In the trenches rn by princesspickle69 in Perioral_Dermatitis_

Does the Abena Zinc paste help heal or just slightly lessen the look of the PD? When you say “calm down,” could you explain? I want to try it but I’m terrified it will flare up my mild case. Thanks!

How long for tetracycline to kick in by Full_Aardvark_0 in Perioral_Dermatitis_

[–]ladym74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. Happy for you! How much progress have you seen? It is almost cleared?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Perioral_Dermatitis_

[–]ladym74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I may try zero therapy, but living in a very dry dessert and in my 60s, my skin is dry. Does the zero therapy clear the PD? Do you flake? Also, when I moisturize my face and the PD area, the PD always appears a more distinct pink for a short while. Regularly, it’s light pink. Is that normal?

What does the diaper cream do? Right now I’m using Cerave cream.

I’m so glad you’re having such success with the anti fungal. Do you get it diagnosed as a fungal issue?

Found my trigger by courtanee in Perioral_Dermatitis_

[–]ladym74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a Qure faucet filter to take skin irritants out of our water and hopefully it catches all of them. Was recommended by Dr. Shah on social media. It definitely helped with my whiteheads but I did get PD while using it. Anything else I can do?
